Two more Heritage Blaster, too much disappointment :(
If I didn't have bad luck, I'd have no luck at all when it comes to the Heritage Blasters. Bought 2 more this morning ... not only was it disappointing because of the mediocre break, and duplicity of cards, but both boxes had virtually the same cards/collation as each other. I have triples and quadruples of certain SP high number cards and still missing about 60%. I guess I should stop buying for a while and just try and trade off my dupes to fill in. I'll probably list about 20 different SP high number cards within the next few days.
I've got 2 GQ hobby boxes on their way from Dave and Adam's ... I know I'll get at least a few autos from there.
Let's see ... if my bad luck streak continues, the autos will all be redemption cards!!! LOL
I guess if I saved used tinfoil and used tea bags instead of old comic books and old baseball cards, the difference between a crazed hoarder and a savvy collector is in that inherent value.

I have a few SP's marked FT if you'd like to look and see if you need any.

Cool, thanks!!
I need to get my butt in gear and get my trade-ables listed. As soon as I do, I'll PM you. Thanks again.

That works. Me too, I have managed to get about 60 listed, but have a whole bunch more to get on here. I started buying baseball about a month ago and have just enjoyed ripping packs and haven't sat down and added them to the org. Sometimes I wish I had a secretary for my cards, I asked my wife but she just rolls her eyes.

I get that eye-roll quite often. Must be a Wives Club thing!
I enjoy ripping open packs much more than I like organizing them.
My floor has stacks and stacks of cards that need to be put into some order. Every time I think I have a handle on it, there's a new product that hits the market and I'm right back where I started.
I'll get my trade list up and running and we'll 'talk" !
Welcome to the Hobby! (or is it Welcome Back to the Hobby?) Either way, glad to have you aboard!

THe way my luck has been running, you're dupes and my dupes are the same and we're both after the same cards!

I actually do know how long it takes.
It's a little mind numbing, and calming, but it can get a little tedious.
If you subscribe to the OPG, you get unlimited ORG. I get the Dynamic duo ... for $99 you get the OPG and the monthly magazine. It's a good deal, IMO.

$99 per year up front I'm assuming? Beats my 9$ a month deal with no paper mag for sure!
